Some of you may have noticed me missing at Cars & Coffee this past Saturday. I was heading down to Hill country in search of some of the best Texas barbecue and this is what I found...
Snow BBQ in Lexington...
Louie Muelle in Taylor...
Smitty's Market in Lockhart...
Black's BBQ in Lockhart...
Salt Lick in Driftwood...
And my only non-barbecue meal...
Round Rock Donuts in Round Rock...

Hard Eights is pretty good but I'm not a fan of their BBQ sauce at all. We go there for work lunches about once a month. I've been going to a new place lately that is owned by a coworkers friend and I must say...it's easily my favorite BBQ place in DFW now...
Mike Andersons BBQ is amazing, Mike himself cuts your meat everyday, they only serve till they run out of meat daily which is fairly early since they aren't open for dinner unless you reserve the place after hours, they have like 15 different sides, and the pulled pork and sliced brisket is out of this world. Not to mention they have texas toast which to me is the sign of a great bbq joint.
Also Cousins BBQ in west Ft. Worth off Bryant Irvin is really good, a friend in highschools uncle owned that one and we went there often. There are I think two more locations, one off 1187 near 35s and I don't remember where the other one is. I'd say this place is probably my 2nd favorite in all DFW.

County Line was fantastic! It definitely blew Salt Lick away and their homemade bread was fantastic.
Cool view from their patio (it's an old speakeasy):
Marbled brisket + coleslaw + mac & cheese + white & wheat bread:
Lean brisket + smoked chicken + sausuage + mac & cheese + coleslaw:
Janelle said this place had the best brisket she's ever eaten and I'd tend to agree. Her marbled was better than my lean (wanted to try both). The smoked chicken was good, but I'd probably say Sonny Bryan's and Baker's is slightly better. The sausage was also very good, I'd probably put it at/near the top. The coleslaw had good flavor, it was almost like a salad since it was chopped in fairly large pieces. The mac & cheese was incredibly gooey and easily took top honors away from KFC.

IMHO, BBQ places tend to be good one day, then start slacking after time (for whatever reason). Rudy's is consistent; I'll give them that. Some friends of mine say their food is too smokey. I like it just fine.
Check out Ironworks. It was good eats when I ate there a few years ago.
